Great bang for your buck

Silver Lake is my go-to course for a 4 hour, straightforward round. Grabbed the twilight deal for this course on a weekday while leagues and high school play were going on, and still finished in Time for dinner at the bar.

A few tough pin positions, greens were a little hard to read, but overall a great course for the average-above average golfer. Staff is always friendly and attentive. No beverage cart but always something available at the turn (north and south course).

Highly recommend everyone check this place out

been a while

Used to come here when I first started playing golf 20 years ago and came back to take my dad for his birthday round. It was nice then and still remains nice. The course was in fine shape and greens were rolling nice but not impossible fast. there's some water but overall is an easier course with wide fairways so you can almost always find your ball. I usually shoot low 90s and that's what happened here. 92 and a great round with dad.

Don't let golfers off back nine!

Only one complaint! They let a high school golf team off the back nine right as we were approaching the 9th tee box.

Challenging round

Not really narrow fairways but you have to position the ball because of the placement of trees and doglegs, not to mention the water. Every skill level can enjoy the course and the staff is terrific.

First Time Playing

Beautiful courses

First time playing this course. I played the south course and it was in real good shape. The fairways where we'll groomed and green, same for the greens. The course had many challenging holes and the greens sloped enough to make putting interesting. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There are practice greens and a driving range. The halfway snack shop has some good food choices too. Also the beverage cart came by several times. Overall it was a very enjoyable round even though we had to play through some bad weather. I will be going back.

Frustrating round

I played a Saturday afternoon round in the south course. There was no starter, therefore people just started their round in no apparent order. I got a sense that they just stack as many people in the shortest window as possible. This was the slowest round I played in a few years. Throughout my round, I never once saw a ranger monitoring pace of play. Although I paid for a full 18 holes, I quit after nine.

Fun but slow

I've been playing Silver Lake for 25+ years, and it is one of my favorite courses. The fairways are cut just right so that the ball is almost always sitting up, almost like being on tee. My only complaint about the facility is the pace of play. There will be times when there will be a group on the tee in front of you as you arrive and one in the fairway. It happens sometimes at all courses, but the rangers don't do enough to police it. You have to call clubhouse to complain before a ranger will say anything. And don't get me started on outings...they'll book a double shotgun outing and still book tee times later in the day when they KNOW the outing is still going to be on the course. Ask about it before you book a tee time and trust me, stay away if there is an outing that day.

Good for the price

People are friendly and helpful. Course in good shape. Only issue is there is no water to drink on the course. Not paying for bottled water. North course halfway house on 12th hole FYI and no cart service. Bring a jug!

Hi DJ- we actually provide FREE water bottles at the first tee any and all days that it reaches 75 degrees or more. Also, we have several water fountains on the course. Maybe you just missed them. Thanks for choosing Silver Lake and hope next time we can help you stay hydrated!
